Dude I saw this today coming back from Dayton on 70 around 1ish... I wanted to take a pic and post it but was headed east and the truck was going west. Thing was MASSIVE

 

Yeah it was so big lol. I saw it coming down 71s up in delaware at like 12:30 or so. Thing was massive. Wonder how much boost something like this would run to be efficient, how much power it would make, and why it has two outlets.

It would probably take a train engine to spool it.

I used to work on these when I worked at Cooper Cameron in Mt Vernon (Rolls Royce now but Rolls doesn't do these) many moons ago. Yep they are HUGE! You should see the impellers!!
